He sold his boat and no longer needs the ski. Located in Twinsburg OH. Email me if interested. mailto:stevee@ecc-controls.com - Email He is asking $425. Includes carring case.

OK, so he is probably high on his price, right?

Even if you are not interested, could you chime in on what a realistic asking price would be?

-Thx

Raindog,

what boots are on that ski hard to tell. Is the front boot a high wrap and the rear just a sturrip?

raindog,
I bought that same ski (though a 66") for my buddy a year ago. Blank was $225 on ebay. He put Targas on it. I really like the ski btw. It is super stiff and responsive.

87 - AFAIK you are right. High wrap front and rear stirrup.

Dude, so with bindings, maybe $300-$325???

Steve,

Check out these sites:
http://www.ski-it-again.com/php/skiitagain.php - Ski-it-Again
http://www.skifly.com/ - SkiFly in the ski-bay area

Generally ski's loose about 50% of their value after a year or two, check out the above sites and see what people are asking for the same ski, might not be a bad idea to list it there as well.

Also list the ski length, model year, binding size and type and that the rear is a toe plate.

Looks like an early Contact laceless binding that came after the "Force". A "highwrap" if you will.

Thanks for the info, guys.

No, he isn't selling anything else. All of the other stuff went with the boat.

I dunno Quinner. Regular size, I suspose....

He is not a really big guy, so I'd guess something that might fit a size 9 to size 11 or so.

If you want more details, I'll give you his number and you can work everything out. He's a good guy.
